Thanks McDude for the kind words.
A few other things that were hot topics:
The school budget passed and the PMHS Teachers' contract passed, but that still needs to pass in Barnstead.
Just a few corrections:
(1) The project wasn't for a new school but for a renovation.
(2) It had little/nothing to do with enrollment, as it would be 100% occupied upon completion, eliminating the outdated, not-up-to current codes, modulars.
(3) There was no
plan to renovate for half the price; just an article for money. It wouldn't have brought the building up to code and brought in the modulars, I'm sorry to say. (Once construction starts, the whole building has to be brought up to code - no more grandfathering.)
(4) Christine Michaud-Tilly finished third, while write in candidate Mary Doherty finished fourth. (The LaDa Sun didn't have it quite right.)
There's a lot of info about the project on the
school's website. The Building & Grounds Committee is always open to new members, if anyone's interested.
